Sarkozy's visit to Moscow

French President Nicolas Sarkozy arrived yesterday in Moscow on his first state visit to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The press speculates on whether France has adopted a more confrontational policy towards Russia than it pursued under Sarkozy's predecessor Jacques Chirac.

Le Nouvel Observateur - Francja

Interviewed by Anne-Sophie Hojlo, Laure Delcour, research director at IRIS (Institut de Relations Internationales et Stratégiques) and specialist in Russian affairs and EU exterior policy, considers the meeting. "It is necessary to reach agreements on concrete subjects something that has yet to be achieved, especially on a European level. ... Russia is indeed going through a political evolution that can be worrying, but we cannot swing things the right way through condemnation. It is better to further integrate it in the concrete of nations, to 'socialise' it, in a way. New criticism would not be well perceived and would rather represent a bet in view of other Europeans who often criticised France for being too soft with Russia during the Chirac era." (10/10/2007)

Berliner Zeitung - Niemcy

According to Axel Veiel, the French president's stance towards Russia is more confrontational than that of his predecessor Jacques Chirac. "French-Russian relations would be in a sorry state were it not for the fact that Putin and his guest have something in common: they are both great pragmatists. Sarkozy's reproaches on the subject of Russia's human rights violations in Chechnya are therefore likely to be forgotten as soon as it comes to cooperating on an economic level to the advantage of both sides. ... Perhaps Sarkozy will even manage to convince his counterpart that it's in Russia's best interests to support Paris's policy on Iran and step up pressure on Tehran." (10/10/2007)

Neue Zürcher Zeitung - Szwajcaria

"Under President Sarkozy, France has adopted a tougher stance towards the Kremlin than it did under his predecessor Chirac," Christian Müller writes. "Before his first official visit to Moscow this week, the French head of state went to some trouble to allay the fears of former Soviet states in Eastern Europe that there would be a continuation of Chirac's policy of giving Russia's interests priority. ... The improvised triple alliance among Putin, Schröder and Chirac against Washington is now a thing of the past. ... German Chancellor Angela Merkel's tougher stance regarding Putin echoes that of Sarkozy, who is unwilling to let Berlin get the better of him either in this relationship or in its relations with the Eastern Europeans."

Mladá fronta Dnes - Czechy

French philosopher André Glucksmann accuses Europeans of being too naive in its attitude towards Russia and Vladimir Putin. In an interview with Jan Rybar he explains: "Putin has the world's second-largest nuclear weapons arsenal at his disposal and controls huge amounts of gas and oil. No one controls him because there is no free press in Russia. It would be naïve to believe that this powerful man doesn't represent a threat. It pains me to see how little France, Germany and Italy have reacted to the warnings of their new EU and NATO partners. If the EU wants to continue to play an active role in the future, it is of primary importance that it agrees on a common energy policy." (10/10/2007)
